# SAY – How to make your voicebot speak?

If you want your voicebot to just say something and the block does not require any special logic, use the **Say** block. It is one of the simplest and most basic blocks. It has only one input and one output port.

### :point\_right: **BASIC FUNCTIONALITIES**

**Text to say –** You can make your bot speak in two ways, choosing the preferred option:

* **Speech synthesizer**
* **Own recording**

If you choose the **Speech synthesizer** option, all you have to do is write a text that will be read by the Text-2-Speech (TTS) system.

{% hint style="warning" %}
**REMEMBER!** *The language in which you write the text should be the same as the one you set in the **Voicebot language** option in a Start Call Block.*
{% endhint %}

If you choose the **Own recording** option, then you can upload the audio file with the recorded phrase. (Then, your customer will listen while talking to the voicebot.)

{% hint style="warning" %}
**REMEMBER!** *You cannot use the Global Variables and Arguments while using **Own recording** option*.
{% endhint %}

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://help.inteliwise.com/what-can-you-do-with-inteliwise-blocks/say-how-to-make-your-voicebot-speak.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
